    Guys. Don’t get fooled about NSD. How many times even under Urban did we have a killer NSD where we actually flipped a 5 star? Or even had a 5 star commit on actual NSD? I’m pretty sure it’s never happened. We’ve always been a hat on the table. So those throwing out 5 stars are a pipe dream. Sorry to burst bubbles but it’s true.

    Not checking on stars, but some notable signing day additions that hasn’t been mentioned…Cece Jefferson (committed, but no fax machine) and Tyree Cleveland.

    Sometimes we get a good one, Kamari Wilson? I don't know if he was a last minute signee but we stole him from UGA.

    But sometimes... if we don't have a certain player in the bag before signing day that player might just be looking for a bag on signing day.

    I'd like to keep who we have on signing day and get some nice surprises for a change.

    Preposterous to compare 2008 to 2022. Everything is different.

    I’m looking forward to restocking our team for 2023.
    I’ll be glad when the ink is dried.

    Go Gators!

    Exactly. If you have to reach that far? And how many times since then have we thought we would land some 5 stars on signing day only to whiff. History says it’s not going to happen so fans shouldn’t prepare for it and then get on Billy because he had a bad signing day when that’s not how it works.

    Unfortunately it is set up that way. Everyone is hanging their hats on Organizational rebuild and recruiting, because, well…. A strong showing would really help with some needed energy.

    Actually, 14 years in Geologic Terms, is almost indetectable. If one considers the Earth to be 4.567 Billion years old. It may be a bit different from a human perspective however. I have noticed grayness and some balding on the top of my head.

    Especially after this years inconsistent play................

    I am not so sure Bobby. Prior to NIL/Transfer Portal I would certainly agree. I'm not so sure now. I think the last 24-72 hours B4 early signing day could get very interesting.

    Is he signing early? Maybe if Atkins leave then we got a shot.
